Science Fiction

Two books I've read that I really like the message of are Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451. The authors both say something about where humans are in the future based on where we are now. I think it'd be interesting to write something about the fashion industry and its definition of "beautiful" and how this corrupts peoples' self image. More people are getting plastic surgery and starve themselves, while others are told to hate themselves due to being overweight. It's a subject that really bugs me. So, maybe I'll write a story from a Brave New World approach and make it seem like everyone is doing these things to show how corrupt this industry will become if we continue on this way.
